  • C asked: How much is/each this course and is there more classes for REXX?
  • S asked: One of our customer is looking at training on REXX technologies. Please provide us details along with commercials and contact details/
  • P asked: We have only on REXX programmer on site and my boss would like me to try and get better aquainted with this language. I have manipulated REXX to perform certain functions already being done by changing variables, etc. but need a much better understanding if I am going to write or create any useful programs in the future.
  • E asked: I am very interested in your Rexx/VM training, however I'm concerned about another component that I must learn. At , we're running Oracle . in combination with ProRexx. I'm supporting an old application, until we completed replatforming to Oracle i on the Unix Platform. I realize that I can get the Rexx/VM training via your product, but how can I get the training in ProRexx that I need? How can your company satisfy my training needs? Any thoughts or comments would be appreciated. Would like to learn interactively via CD ROM, CBT (computer based training).
  • E asked: I need more information about this training. I'm interested in independent training on CD-rom. This training is only for me, one person. At work, we use REXX in the environment, and ProRexx where we do selects and updates to an Oracle . database. What kind of course offering do you have in this respect, and what is the cost? Cost is an important consideration on whether this would be approved or not. I have no idea of what your training screens look like, not how exams are conducted showing the mastery of lessons learned.
